H-Zim 0.5

1. Pour the required amount of powder into the tray using the measuring scoop (30 ml = 20 g);
2. Stir gently (part of the product will remain undissolved as a reserve, maintaining a constant concentration of active ingredient (PAA) in solution): the solution is ready after 15 minutes;
3. Immerse the instruments immediately after use, without pre-washing;
4. The powder begins to release peracetic acid (active oxygen), while the enzymes dissolved in water break down and remove blood, mucus, pus and any other organic residues of protein, lipid and carbohydrate nature from the instruments.

OXICER is a water-soluble powder to be used in aqueous solution at the indicated dilutions:

• 20 g/l: high-level disinfection in 10 minutes;
• 20 g/l: high-level disinfection in 15 minutes in case of heavy soiling.

At the end of the contact time, rinse the medical devices thoroughly with water.

Note: The diluted solutions have a milky appearance. This represents an operational advantage, as it discourages improper and unsafe behavior such as immersing hands to retrieve the devices.

OPERATING PROCEDURE FOR DEVICE REMOVAL

1. Lift the instrument tray grid from the decontamination solution;
2. Place it on the edge of the tray;
3. Remove the device;
4. Reposition the grid.

The working solutions may also be used for decontamination and high-level disinfection of fiber-optic equipment (e.g., endoscopes), as there are no substantial physico-chemical incompatibilities between the solution components and the materials of such devices.

The product becomes active 15 minutes after dissolution; the prepared solution remains effective for a minimum of 24 hours.

Multi-enzyme blend, isopropyl alcohol, alkyl portion of a cationic surfactant, surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, purified water q.s. to 100.0 g.

H-ZIM 0.5 demonstrates excellent biocidal activity, effective against both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, with greater potency against the latter. It is also active against mycobacteria. Microbial biofilm removal (contact time 10 minutes, 10 ml/l). To document and confirm the biocidal efficacy of the product, the following tests were conducted in accordance with EN 14885:
